    Hello I have a SBS 2011 box. The past few weeks WSUS Synchronization has failed with the following;

    An HTTP Error has occurred, 

    WebException: The operation has timed out
    at System.Web.Services.Protocols.WebClientProtocol.GetWebResponse(WebRequest request)
       at System.Web.Services.Protocols.HttpWebClientProtocol.GetWebResponse(WebRequest request)
       at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSync.ServerSyncCompressionProxy.GetWebResponse(WebRequest webRequest)
       at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.Invoke(String methodName, Object[] parameters)
       at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSyncWebServices.ServerSync.ServerSyncProxy.GetRevisionIdList(Cookie cookie, ServerSyncFilter filter)
       at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSync.CatalogSyncAgentCore.WebserviceGetRevisionIdList(ServerSyncFilter filter, Boolean isConfigData)
       at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSync.CatalogSyncAgentCore.ExecuteSyncProtocol(Boolean allowRedirect)

    The network topology has not changed, so I am at a loss why this is happening.

    I reset the WSUS database and checked all permission on the repo and IIS.

    Event log does not show enough information to be verbose.

    WSUS service logs do not show anything that stand out... 

    Ideas?

    Cheers

    Can you try switching to using a LAN server as an update source (even a fictitious one), then change it back again to using Microsoft as the update source, then try a sync?

    Jim

    EDIT Possibly also choose a fictitious proxy server, then revert back to no proxy server.

    Hi Jim

    I've tested a VM I have and that Syncs fine to MS update - no errors.

    On the SBS box, I got not even run manual update, error Code 80072EE2

    At a loss now.

    I've managed to fix the issue, which after investigating logs was down to KB2720211

    The fix

    On Command Line (CMD) -> cd "%PROGRAMFILES%\Update Services\Tools"

    1.- wsusutil configuressl your.full.fqdn.servername
    2.- restart wsusservice
    3.- restart bits
    4.- iisreset

    Bingo - sync starts working again.
